The Razer Viper Mini is an excellent wired gaming mouse. It's the smaller version of the regular Razer Viper and is one of the lightest mice we've tested so far. While its sensor performance isn't quite as good as the other mice in the Viper lineup, it's still superb and its incredibly low click latency ensures a responsive and lag-free gaming experience. Due to its small size, it's best suited for a fingertip grip, and any hand size should be able to use it with this grip type. Unfortunately, it doesn't have as many additional side buttons as the other Viper mice, but on the bright side, every button is programmable.
Our Verdict
The Razer Viper Mini is a decent mouse for office or multimedia use. Its straightforward design feels comfortable enough to last a full work day and it has two additional buttons on the left side which can be reprogrammed. Unfortunately, its mouse wheel doesn't have any L/R tilt buttons or horizontal scrolling to help scroll through Excel spreadsheets. Its scroll wheel is also incremented and can't be unlocked to infinite scroll through long websites or large documents. On the bright side, the mouse is compatible with both Windows and macOS, and while you can only customize it on a Windows PC, you can save your settings on the mouse and use them on a Mac.

The Razer Viper Mini is an ex excellent FPS gaming mouse. It's very lightweight, and its incredibly low click latency means even competitive gamers shouldn't notice any delay or lag. The sensor performance is also excellent, and while its max CPI isn't quite as high as some other options, it's likely still higher than most people will use. Every button on the mouse can be reprogrammed within the software, and the cable is flexible and doesn't create drag on the desk. The mouse is also quite comfortable and should be suitable for any hand size with a fingertip grip.

While the Razer Viper Mini is a good mouse for MMO games thanks to its outstanding sensor performance and click latency, it doesn't have nearly as many additional buttons as dedicated MMO mice. There are only two additional side buttons, though every button on the mouse can be remapped, and you can set a profile switch button to add an additional layer. The Viper Mini should be comfortable and well-built enough to last through the longest of gaming marathons.

Compared To Other Mice
The Razer Viper Mini is the smaller version of the Razer Viper. Its sensor performance isn't quite as good as the other mice in the Viper line, though it's still outstanding. Those with larger hands may want to consider the Razer Viper or the Razer Viper Ultimate, but if you like ultra-light mice, the Mini is likely the way to go. You can also check out our recommendations for the best mice, the best wired mice, and the best FPS mice.
The Razer Viper Mini and the Razer Cobra are gaming mice with virtually the same size and shape. The Cobra has a slightly better sensor with a lower lift-off distance. On the other hand, the Viper Mini feels somewhat sturdier.
The Razer Viper Mini and the Razer Viper V2 Pro are similar gaming mice from the same lineup. They share the same overall shape, but the Mini is scaled down to accommodate smaller hand sizes. Despite being a larger mouse that you can connect wirelessly, the V2 Pro is marginally lighter. It also has a much better sensor.
The Razer Viper 8KHz performs better than the Razer Viper Mini for most uses, though both mice look similar. The 8KHz is slightly bigger and feels a little more comfortable, especially if you have medium or large hands. Performance-wise, it has a much wider CPI range that you can adjust more precisely and with very little variation. It also has a lower lift-off distance and an outstanding maximum polling rate of 8000Hz, which results in smoother movement, though we don't test for this. Lastly, the 8KHz features two side buttons on each side, while the Mini only has two buttons on its left side. That said, the Mini is smaller and weighs a bit less, so it may be a better choice for people with smaller hands, especially those using a fingertip grip.
